Apple Pay - Paying has never been easier!
Apple Pay is a simple and functional payment method available for all Apple devices. Working like a conventional card, this solution allows you to make purchases safely and easily in shops, apps and on the Internet.
The only difference is that you can avoid queues for payment at the reception, spa, restaurant or bar of hotels, hostels, etc. because it's so quick and simple.
How can you use Apple Pay?
Firstly, customers need to install the Wallet app and add their debit and prepaid cards to their iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch or Mac. Only then can they set up Apple Pay.
Then simply touch the mobile phone, even if it's unlocked, to a REDUNIQ contactless terminal and automatically asks for validation by Face ID or Touch ID recognition.
Face ID, as the name suggests, allows users to accept payments using facial recognition. They just have to look at the iPhone screen for it to recognise their faces.
The second validation option, Touch ID, works in practically the same way. Customers just need to place their finger on the iPhone's fingerprint reader (Touch ID) and the payment is successfully validated.
In addition to physical sales, this feature can be used to make purchases at all types of stores. apps. With just one or two taps, customers can go to your website and buy a pair of shoes, home decor, food or any other product or service.
